back to Martinborough with Julia, Karen and David

---

Didn't sleep too well as the ajrport seemed to get a lot closer during the night and hence planes a,lot louder...something to do with the good weather and lack of wind in the area. Left our b and b after breakfast and made our way to Upper Hutt to see Karens new house which is lovely and has great potential for her DIY skills. Then on to Martinborough, checked back in to the Riesling Retreat and back to Big Sis's for the afternoon in the sweltering heat...over 30oc today.

This evening David came over from Greytown to say goodbye and have some risotto ai funghi,and,a,glass of local red.I was sorry to see,him go after finding him perhaps for the first time so late. David is my brother.
